The long road to treaty | Insiders On Background

Описание: It’s been a very long road – but Australia’s first treaty with Aboriginal people has now been signed and formalised as law.

Such treaties with indigenous groups have long been in place in New Zealand and Canada. But not here - until now, in Victoria.

There are hopes this historic moment will be a turning point – a new partnership – that leads to better outcomes for all.

But what does this treaty actually involve? How will it change Victoria? And what are the implications of this for the rest of the country?

The co-chair of the First People’s Assembly of Victoria, Rueben Berg sat down to talk with host Melissa Clarke.
